Regarding our expenses, we don't have a formal arrangement at this time. We're operating a bit outside of the usual protocol for this one as the "Johnson" is a friend of mine. But my expectation would be that, if asked, they would say something like "It can come out of the budget I set aside for other expenses, as long as it's replenished at the end of the job." In other words, we can obtain credit in advance and exploit opportunities along the way to buy it out. I believe we found an opening on an office space for rent in that building, so if we act quickly we should be able to gain that advantage. | Regarding our expenses, we don't have a formal arrangement at this time.

I understand that Selene and Jynx just stumbled into something bigger than they expected? What happened? --MaltaTalk
(Insert plot summary to this point here! We discussed this in person.)
Hoi, so we have a break-in to do! That sound easy enough - so ka? It's our biz! I think that we probably should go for an interview. What's our expenses on this jaunt? Can we rent an office on their cred? Then we should setup in their building and do a datasteal. Anyone got a highend SIN? Again - will the Johnson pay for one? I also might want one, Jason ain't great. Otherwise - I can probably convince someone to get me a tour, or at least, convince someone I am a consultant. Can a matrix jockey find me what the SINs look like so we can do a simple entrance, look around, and see what's up. Maybe plant a data tap. If we can rent the space - we also need a cover business - anyone ever wanted to sell things? I could open a marketing business if needed - but if that's the case - we need a corporate charter. --MaltaTalk
